 for a welcome evening of BBQ (Friday, June 16th - Session 1) and an all-day 

 (Saturday, June 17th - Session 2) with the 

 using a large corpus of community Slack and Videos!

Need a vector database brush up? Join us for a 

on Wednesday, June 14th for an intro to Weaviate, where you'll get hands on experience with a vector database. 

💪 Collaborate with and learn from other like-minded MLOps practitioners in AI, ML, and Data Science industries.

💻 Get access to tools and credits from Weaviate to build end-to-end solutions.

👨🏻‍💻 Get support in-person from Weaviate engineers – who will help you go from 0 to 100 in no time.

📣 Selected teams will be invited to share their solutions at an upcoming Berlin MLOps Community meetup

Vector embeddings generated by LLMs – like those provided by OpenAI, Cohere, Hugging Face, and Google PaLM, or those you may fine-tune yourself – opened up a world of possibilities in how we understand and query our data.

 – an AI-native vector database – and you have a recipe for running LLMs at a scale of millions or even billion data objects.

Option 1 – MLOps community Slack search

 is a 17K+ member community, primarily online in a thriving slack channel and through virtual and in-person events. There is a lot of tribal knowledge in the community where experts answer questions from other MLOps practitioners in Slack and via in-person meetups and online videos. 

We want you to build an LLM-powered application (Web/Mobile/Slack) to answer MLOps and other ML/DS/AI questions that community members may have using the historical knowledge in Slack, videos, etc.

 For example - you may implement the solution as a chatbot that uses embeddings and a vector datastore to generate the answers.

Bring in your own data and a use case – that you were itching to build but never had the time for.

We will help you generate vector embeddings***** and show you how to query your data******. Then you will be able to focus on building the rest of the app to impress us all.

****** if you already have vector embeddings for your data ready, that is cool too – we will show you how to load your data with your embeddings.* ******

warning: you may be surprised how little code it takes to do it all.

 As part of enhancing our community, we are looking to provide the opportunity to our members and other participants to learn to improve their knowledge on building LLM-powered solutions to a common problem of knowledge discovery by designing and building an app that uses LLMs to answer community member questions, just like the human experts.

Here’s everything you need to know to get started:

👷 You can work individually or in groups of up to 4 people

🔨 You can use any Open Source tools to build your solutions and your code need not be open-source.

💽 The data provided for the purposes of this hackathon is under the 

 license, intended for non-commercial use only.

📅 Projects should be started at the event kick-off to maintain fairness across projects

🔨 Get a head start with this vector database workshop hosted by Weaviate on Wednesday before the hackathon with this free workshop on  

💫 Looking for creative solutions in the LLM App Stack (UI, System Design, Microservices) that solve real-world problems using emergent LLM technologies.
